This is version 2.18 of the AWS Elemental Conductor File documentation. This is the latest version. For prior versions, see the Archive section of AWS Elemental Conductor File and AWS Elemental Server Documentation.
Change Folder for Database Backups
The default folder for backups is on the node at /home/elemental/database_backups.
We strongly advise that you mount a remote folder as the location for backups. In that way, if the hardware unit fails, you can restore the database from that remote folder.
To mount a remote folder
Choose a remote server in your organization and designate a folder for backups.
Mount that folder to the AWS Elemental Conductor File node, as described in Add Mount Points to AWS Elemental Conductor File Nodes.
In Path to Store Management in the Conductor File's settings, type the path to the mount folder. The path will always start with
/data/mnt/. For example:/data/mnt/conductor1_backup
